The twins' 4th birthday is only a month away and I've been party planning.

Here's one of the projects I've been working on, a bumble bee photo station.

Now to keep it away from them for the next month so it doesn't get broken, painted on or crushed.  Does anybody have a couple of little straight jackets in a size 6T?

Products required:

• Elmer's large tri-fold foam display board
• Elmer's foam display board
• X-Acto knife
• Elmer's glue spots
• Cardboard (I used an old box)
• Paint and brushes

To make:

The image was sketched directly onto the large tri-fold display board and then painted.

Wings and a flower were drawn onto the scrap cardboard, cut-out, painted and then attached to the foam board using Elmer's glue dots.

The legs (to add a little extra support to the board) were cut out of a regular Elmer's foam display board, painted, and slots were cut in that and the main tri-fold board.

You may remember that I made a similar board for Halloween a couple of years ago.
